About this deal

You can add this in circular motions to work it into the grain but always finish in the direction of the grain. This technique was used on oak beams in old houses and became a very popular method on furniture in the late 19 th century. An easy way to give a surface a whitewashed look, Lime Wax can be put right over a finished surface to protect and color at the same time. Overcoat with a clear wax polish for a more durable finish, or a finishing oil for a water resistant finish. Always sand in the direction of the grain pattern where possible, ensuring the removal of any blemishes and glue residue prior to the application of Fiddes Supreme Liming Wax.

Liberon Liming Wax is a white wax that can be used to create a limed effect on hardwoods (where the softer parts of the grain are removed) or it can be used as a "white washed" type effect on softwoods. Clean the Surface: Once you have an open grain, wipe the surface with a clean cloth to remove any loose dust or debris. Moreover, one of the significant advantages of liming wax is that it not only enhances the wood’s aesthetic appeal but also provides a water-resistant and durable finish. It can also be applied to raw and tinted wood, enhancing the grain and giving an Aged World look with ease. Sand the wooden substrate in stages, working with a medium sandpaper (120 grit), through to a medium / fine grade (180 –220 grit).

Another popular use for liming wax is to apply it as a finishing touch after a piece of furniture has been painted. Once dry, Fiddes Liming Wax must be finished with a coat of Fiddes Supreme Wax Polish, using the 'clear' option to retain the limed look. If you wish to enhance the effect, colour the wood with Liberon Palette Wood Dye before applying the liming wax.

What you want to do is really work the wax into the grain, and then wipe it back so all the wax stays deep in the grain and comes off the outer surface of the wood. One of its most common uses is in furniture restoration, where it gives old, worn-out pieces of furniture a fresh, updated look. It’s essential to wipe off the surplus product with a clean, damp cloth, ensuring a consistent finish. Use a clean cotton cloth or brush to apply wax in a thin layer, working into recesses of carved details or surface imperfections.To prepare the wood for a whitewash Liming effect, you need to first make sure the surface is clean and has no previous finish by using wood stripper and steel wire wool to remove this (Liming works best on bare wood). Apply a second coat of Black Bison Wax and buff using the Liberon Furniture Brush or add another coat of oil.
